Classic Lace & Exciting Combinations

cllc.jpg

It wasn't until I became involved in teaching at seminars that I realized many knitters have trouble knitting lace designs. I taught a combinations lace class at several seminars and at the first British American Expo in Denver, CO. The class got so much interest and enthusiasm I decided to write the techniques down to share with other. Knitting lace is a challenging technique that can be fun and easy if you have the tips to make it work. I hope this book will help you with those tips. 


Discover the fun of lace knitting and combining techniques. Step by step instructions teach you the basics of transfer lace, fine lace and a combination of lace with lots of other techniques. A basic trouble shooting guide on common problems you might come across when learning how to knit in lace, what to look for and how to fix problems. Step by step instructions for neckline shapings, short rowing shoulders, multiple increases and lots of other useful information. Then on to more advanced combinations techniques like Cables & Lace, Fairisle & Lace, Lace with Weaving, Tuck & Lace and more. Use the techniques you learn to make the Cables, Lace & Weaving Jacket in this book. 

This book was written for the Brother/Knitking 4.5mm machine but if you have a good working knowledge of your machine and it knits lace you can use this book. 

Includes eight 24 stitch punchcards designs. Classic Lace & Exciting Combinations has proven to be an invaluable resource for your lace knitting reference library.

Price: $18.50 + S&H

More Fun With Classic Lace & Exciting Combinations

mfclec.jpg

More Fun With Classic Lace & Exciting Combinations builds on the basics you already learned about lace knitting in Classic Lace & Exciting Combinations Book. We have taken a few of our favorite techniques from the first book and put them into garments for you to knit. We have also given you more advanced techniques to expand your expertise just a little bit more. I have fun creating and pushing just that little extra to see how far we can go with the combinations. I hope you find this book as valuable and fun as Classic Lace & Exciting Combinations Book. 


Each pattern includes a skematic to help you make the garment incase you can not make the correct gauge. There are five garment patterns in this book and one new technique to learn. Patterns include 1) a Straight Stocking Stitch Skirt, 2) a Jacket with Lace & Fairisle (24 stitch repeat) technique along with direction for both long or short sleeves, (Originally the pattern was written for the G-Carriage but if you substitute Fairisle for G-Carriage it works well too) 3) Drop Shoulder Lace & Fine lace top, 4) Technique and pattern for a top using Lace, Fairisle, Beads and Cable Turns all in one top, 5) Lace Sweater with a set in sleeve. 

This is quite a complicated technique book written for the Brother/Knitking machine but if you have a good working knowledge of your machine you could use this book to expand your knitting experience.
